Easy Cilantro Lime Chicken and Rice

Inspired by a complicated recipe online, I simplified it for my picky eaters and it turned out great!  This is easy to change up. This is what I did:

-2.5 pound bag of chicken breast tenderloins 

-1/2cup chicken broth

-1/4 chopped cilantro

-juice of 1 lime

-2 heaping tablespoons honey

-1t salt (to taste)

-1tsp grated ginger (I used the stuff in a  tube)

-1/4 c olive oil

It also calls for 1/2 c fish sauce but I didn't have any. Also I'm scared of it :)

I put all the ingredients, except the chicken, in a mason jar and shook until well blended. I put the chicken in the pot, dumped liquid over it, and pushed the poultry setting. It automatically sets for 15 minutes. When done I let it depressurize on its own then used tongs to remove chicken. Most fell apart but we're not mushy--omg it tasted so good! I reserved some liquid to store chicken in a container for the week. 

Next up, rice. 

-2 cups rinsed white rice 

-2 3/4 cup water 

Push rice setting and use the default. I can't remember what it was. Sorry!

While its cooking, in a bowl add 1/2 cup chopped cilantro, 1.5 T olive oil, juice of 1 like, and some salt to taste. I just guessed. 

When the rice is done, let it sit for about 5 minutes before removing the lid. Then, stir in bowl ingredients. Add more salt if needed. Perfection!

So easy and the girls loved it. These are picky-ass kids so seeing them eat everything I've cooked the past week has been great!
